    SAEs and Yamatoes like to feast on the new leaves of moss. It was discussed in the forum a couple of years back. I learnt it the hard way too. Anyway, nowadays, I only keep otos and try what the forerunners say, control your water parameters to control the algae rather than rely on the "crew".

    Cheers!
